A'orlhumberlund Co. Democrat
Ruthless Pkosorhtion. Tho fact
that tho Deniocratio party of every loyal
Stato havo presented an unbroken phalanx
to aid in maintaining the national unity,
has not served to 9tcm tho tide of persecu
tion and proscription whioh set in so boldly
on tho advent of tho existing Administra
tion. Tho great greed anil hunger of the
Abolitionists for plaeo and polf inaugurated
such a universal system of proscription as
extended it even to the army.
Democrats occupying civil positions,
recognising tho principles that to the "uic
tors belongs, the spoils' '' were resigned to
their fate. It, however, never entered in
to the imagination that officers occupying
prominent army positions, and signalizing
their efforts by deeds of heroic daring aud
decisive results, should fall under tho ban
of political proscription. Such outrages,
however, havo been perpetrated in the
past, and aro daily repeated.
BST" It is sincerely to be regretted that
the head of the Internal Revenue Depart
ment has seen fit to publifli a correspon
dence foe has had with General Scott
touching the tax upon tho latter s military
ncome i lie law unuer wlncU (jneneral
Scott was retired provided that it should
bo done "without reduction in his current
pay, subsistence, aud ''allowance," hence
he very naturally objected to assessment
levied upon his iccouie by tho new tax law.
ft seems his annual income amounts to
S13,70G,80, and his tax for tho short
month of Fobuary was 30 50. Of course
thc general is too much of a patriot to
dcolino paying any legal assessment, but
he did not deem this such an ono and
honcc demurred. Tho demand for pay.
mcnt, tho correspondence, tho decision iu
face of thc remonstrance, and the final
publication of General Scott's letter, all go
to show that this is a deliberate attempt
to annoy thc old hero and injuro him in
thc pulic estimation. At thc very worst,
it was a privato matter and should never
havo seen thc light. This is a small busi
ness in whatever way it may bo rgarded.
Tin: Nini: Months' Me.v. Tho main
object of tho recent visit of Governor Cur
tin to the army of the Potomac, wo arc
informed, was for thc purposo of promo
ting the success of thc re-enlistment of
those whoso terms will expire in a few
wecki. In this, tho information is, that
he has becn highly successful ; and it is
bclived that at least two thirds of thc nine
mouths' men will re-enlist, after thoy have
had a month's lcisuro and recreation at
heme. All who re-enlist will rceeivo tho
full bounties, and their number will go to
make up our quota of the new call that will
bo matlo under the Conscript law.
Phihtdeluhia Press.
ce?Tho Editor of the Republican, aud
some of tho other small lights of the opo
sition, affect to bo highly gratified at thc
result of thc recent election iu Connecticut.
Lait yoar tho Democrats had forty six
mombors in tho lower houso of tho Legis
lature ; this year wo have ninety eight a
clear gain ofjifty two. Last year wo did
not havo a singlo member of tho Stato
Senate; this year wo havo nine. Last
year tho Abolition candidato for Governor
had 0,148 majority; this year ho has
2,000 a loss of nearly seven thoitsaad.
Docs this look liko a result gratifying to
tho Abolitionists I Put probably their
gratification arises from the fact that thoy
were not entirely defeated.
